Hi Bob, Hope you’re settled back into “normal” life :-)
Please could you indicate your intent? My reading of your previous messages was that you wanted to remain as co-maint, but pass first-come on the OpenGL modules to me (and add ZMUGHAL as co-maint, though if I’m right I can take care of that). If that is so, and you don’t have easy access to your PAUSE credentials, all you need to do is reply “yes” to this email, and the gods of PAUSE (who are Cc:ed) can action it in due course.

You need to log into PAUSE on https://pause.perl.org/pause/authenquery and for the distribution OpenGL, add ETJ (me) and ZMUGHAL (Zaki) as co-maints – no emails involved. If you’re feeling like passing on the torch, then pass first-come to either of us, though it’s obviously a good idea to leave yourself as co-maint.

I’ve not touched the OpenGL module in over a decade; happy to add you. I don’t believe metacpan existed back when I was working on it, and haven’t been able to login. As soon as I get this resolved, I’ll add you. What email addresses am I adding?

I appreciate you may still be busy at work, but I note that you weren’t the original author but someone to whom the library was handed, and I assume you aren’t intending for it to just slowly bit-rot forever?

I can’t release them yet because only you and BBENNETT have permission on it: https://metacpan.org/dist/OpenGL/permissions Could I ask you again to add me (ETJ) and Zaki (ZMUGHAL) as co-maints? Also, you alluded in an email in May last year, to changes you’ve made on your own fork. Could you point me at those so I can incorporate them?

I believe at some point we were discussing in IRC about moving OpenGL development to GitHub either as a mirror or just starting development on GitHub as done with the PDL repositories. I would like to offer any help if that can be done and to start working through the issues here <https://sourceforge.net/p/pogl/bugs/> and creating an Alien::OpenGL to help consolidate some of the build configuration. Perhaps a first step is to create a Perl OpenGL organisation on GitHub? I noticed that <https://metacpan.org/author/BFREE> has owner permissions here <https://metacpan.org/dist/OpenGL/permissions> and was wondering if you are in contact with them. Would they be interested in bringing in OpenGL::Image / OpenGL::Shader? Cheers, - Zaki
